Animals that Change Color.

There is tiny cr,l>tacran, the chame-
leon shrimp, which can alter its hue to
that Of any material on which il happens
to rest. On sandy bottom il appears
gray or sand-colored; when lurking
among ,eaweed it becomes green, or red
or brown, according TO the nature of its
momentary background. Probably the
effect is quite unconscious, or at least in
voluntary, like blushing with ourselves
and nobody ever blushed on purpose,
though they do say distinguished poet
once complained that IN eminent actor
did not follow his stage directions because
he omitted to obey the rubricsl remark,
''Here Harold puppies with anger" The
change is produced by certain automatic
muscles which force up particular pig
ment cells above the Others, green com
ing to the top on green surface, red on
a ruddy one, and brown or gray where
the circumstances demand them. Many
kinds Of fish similarly alter color to suit
their background by forcing forward or
backward certain special piglnent-ce
known as chrcmatophores, whose various
combinations produce at will almost any
required tone or shade. Almost all rep
tiles and amphibians possess the power of
changing their hue in accordance with
their environment in very high degree
and among certain tree toads and frogs
it is difficult TO say what is the normal
coloring, as they vary indefinitely from
buff and dove-color to chocolste-brown,
rose. and even lilac. COrnhiU.

The announcement was recently made
that new process for making steel had
been discovered; it was to revolutionize
the industry and cause an immense saving
Of booth time and money. The news came
from Louisville, where the inventor lives.
II was added tina: the new process made
il possible TO change ordinary soft steel
10 that Of the hardest quality in very
few minutes. Superior caSe-hardenlng
qualities were claimed, and the President
of the company owning the process
visited Washington and offered the Gov
eminent the sole right TO make the steel.
TIE Chicago Age Of steel sent descrip-
ton Of the new process and the superior
qualities claimed for it to one Of its cor
respondents, said to be competent ex-
pert, and asked his opinion. In late
issue Of the journal an opinion is given
and proves to be decidedly unfsvorable
70 the new process. Many CT the claims
made for the new discovery are stated to
he baseless, from the fact that many su-
perior qualities claimed for it are already
STAINED by tie Bessemer and open
hearth process. The claims made are ex-
amined in detail, and the opinion is given
that many Of the virtues stated to exist
in the new discovery ore beyond belief.
The letter ends 10y cougratulating the
editor Of the Age Of Steel on his not hav-
ing permitted his enthusiasm to carry
him away. The journal quoted seems to
place great faith in this correspondent,

Why a Calf Is For Sale.

A few days ago Mr. Jones was away on
business and in his absence his better half,
Mrs. j., bethought herself of something
that would agreeably surprise Mr.. Jones
and make him smile real broad when he
came back. What did she do2 She bought
a calf. Did you ever see or know the
woman who, when she allowed her fancies
to roam over things of comfort, didn't
dream of cow and plenty of milk and
butter and cream2 She thought of the
satisfaction that Jones would have when
once again it would come around time to
pay the milkman. She was as pleased as
pleased can be when she saw the calf
in his stall and tied up.
That night Jones was not appraised of
the new member of the establishment.
The next morning he was. Going into
the barn he saw a calf's tail whisking in
the frosty air. He saw also the remnants
of a $40 harness, he saw colt, shorn of
that rarest element of beauty in horse,
viz. flowing tail-gone the same way
as the harness and a bushel of oats.
Jones was mad. He says that at first he
was mystifed. Then he saw the calf.
The way that he sailed into that calf,
with club, he says, was caution to
evil-doers. He danced around her, for
ward and back, grand right and left,
balance to partners, all promenade. He
was getting proud of himself. He was
splitting on his hands to give the animal
the final coup de grace when Mrs. Jones
came out, and, like Pocahontas, inter
coded with the man and the club and the
calls life was saved. Mr.. Jones says that
now, on the fence at his house, appears
this sign:

An army officer says that small as our
srmy lie, there is an excessive percentage
Of desertion from it, although the men
are far better fed anu paid than any
soldiers in the world The reason is that
q great number Of men enlist for the pur-
pose of being sent West, and then de-
sert. This class is very large and OK
ceedingly hard to deal with, as it is next to
impossible to apprehend them, owing to
the general feeling throughout the noun
tain regions that they have escaped from
kind of slavery Another class liable to
desert consists of young men OF good
family who have become dissipated and
enlisted in moment of despair. But the
.traneest class is that Of the chronic de
serters. These men enlist, desert and then
enlist again. Some men enlist to escape
intolerable blsckmail.
